Kill, scale, or fix. The decision your program needs.

Some programs need investment. Some need restructuring. Some need to close. We give you the data to make the call. Unit economics, leadership bench depth, market viability, and honest assessment of what it takes to turn it around.

The Hardest Decision in F2F Fundraising

Not every program deserves more money. The hardest decision in F2F fundraising is knowing when to invest, when to restructure, and when to walk away. This assessment gives you the data and framework to make that call without guessing.

Most organizations throw good money after bad, hoping a struggling program will turn around. Some close programs without understanding why they failed. This assessment gives you the evidence to make a decision you can defend to your board, your staff, and yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if the answer is kill?

Then you stop losing money and redirect resources. We provide a wind-down plan that protects donors and staff, ensures clean closure, and preserves relationships for future programs or initiatives.

Can you assess individual sites within a larger program?

Yes. Multi-site programs often have viable and non-viable locations. We assess each site independently and provide a portfolio recommendation: which sites scale, which sites fix, which sites close.

Is this just a financial analysis?

No. Unit economics is one critical input. Leadership bench, market quality, organizational capacity, and competitive position all factor into viability. We look at the whole program, not just the spreadsheet.
